Amber Rose has a bone to pick with none other than Julianne Hough.

E! News has the exclusive clip from Amber's next episode of Play.it's Loveline With Amber Rose where the co-host dishes on a recent experience with the blonde judge that rubbed her the wrong way.

Amber's fellow host Dr. Chris Donaghue mentioned that he felt Julianne's criticisms of Amber's dance were unfair, to which she replied, "Last night was like, they did the commentary, and I, it was a point in the dance where I had to lift my leg up and Maks [Chmerkovskiy] dipped me & [Julianne] said, ‘Oh, I'm uncomfortable,' and instantly I felt, I did feel body shamed."

Amber added, "You know, all the beautiful professional dancers that are on Dancing With the Stars, I mean they dress very sexy and they do the splits and they grind up on these guys and they look absolutely stunning and get a standing ovation. And me, and my body, my hips, my ass, my breasts made her uncomfortable."

Meanwhile, Julianne tells E! News exclusively, "To be clear, that was a produced package, not live coverage and they can put those sound bites anywhere.  My ‘uncomfortable' comment was about the fact that I felt like I wanted more out of the performance – when someone is doing a hot, sexy dance like that without the right amount of energy that is required, it can be uncomfortable to watch. "

She continued, "Trust me I'm ALL for a sexy booty dance!! We all know that!!  And any kind of body shaming goes against everything I believe in."

In a recent interview with The Cut, Amber opened up about her body image and how she has embraced her figure.

"People have to realize that the supermodels we see represent 5% or 3 % of the women in the world. It's not realistic. It's very realistic to have cellulite and saggy boobs—it's just a part of being human," she told the magazine.

"It's something I try to put out with my SlutWalk. There's no body-shaming. And it really is very difficult. When you see these images, you think I don't look like that. Embrace the skin that you are in. If you really do want to change, put your mind to it. Try to work out and eat better. I love cheeseburgers and tacos. Those are my two favorite things. I'll probably never have the perfect body and I'm okay with that. As a celebrity now, I embrace it and I embrace my curves. I have a platform to help other women embrace it as well."
